The Fox & Duck is a busy, open-plan community pub at 223-227 Fulwood Road in Broomhill, Sheffield (S10 3BA), popular with both students and locals. Live music lands most Tuesday nights, with karaoke and disco on Fridays and a DJ on Saturdays; the week is rounded out by Monday and Thursday quizzes and Tuesday card bingo, plus live sport every day. A relaxed Craft Union community pub with cold beer and hot coffee (no kitchen — you're welcome to bring your own food), it offers student and NHS discounts and recently reopened its garden after major investment. The in-house PA supports both originals and covers; capacity is around 70.
